Steam Freight locomotive sound capsule

Steam Freight locomotive sound capsule

Sounds are not simulated effects but real sounds recorded by us on the North Norfolk Railway from Steam loco B12 8572 except the coaling shovelling which is from Oliver Cromwell 70013.

- Resting - Gentle steam hiss plus a Pump and occasional Fireman coaling

- Any movement triggers the sound of steam release and if motion continues there is a short whistle followed by ‘chuffs’

- Slow Steam chuffs get a little faster after a while, as heard with heavy goods or shunting

- A double whistle sounds if the loco travels continuously for a while

- When motion stops it returns to Resting sounds.

- When there is no motion for around a minute the SFX automatically goes to sleep and waits for movement to wake it up.
